Pakistan itself rushed to condemn Israel over the Gaza conflict, and, of course, Cast Lead, toeing the Muslim line over a conflict in which it has no discernible interest. Now Pakistan’s people will pay the price as they struggle for a share of the world’s aid beneficence.

The death toll in Pakistan will rise, and the poverty and suffering will increase. So will the extremism and instability of the most dangerous and fragile nuclear-armed country in the world while there Guardian will be cheer on ships of fools from Lebanon or elsewhere. Gaza will still come first despite the loaded food stalls, the shopping mall, the smuggled goods, the UNRWA handouts.
